1. Related Articles Optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis. Curr Opin Neurol. 2008 Feb;21(1):16-21 Authors: Plant GT PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To discuss recent neuro-ophthalmic advances relevant to the management of optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis. RECENT FINDINGS: Major advances have occurred in the fields of autoimmunity in optic neuritis, and in imaging the retinal nerve fibre layer in both optic neuritis and multiple sclerosis. SUMMARY: A proportion of cases of optic neuritis occur in patients who do not develop multiple sclerosis; the optic neuritis may be monophasic illness or recurrent. In many recurrent cases who also have myelitis (neuromyelitis optica) a serum ... (Read Full Article)
